DocuSign®, the global leader in electronic signature, today launched the industry’s first marketplace focused on applications which streamline documented business transactions, by connecting with and expanding the DocuSign platform. DocuSign Marketplace connects certified partners with over 40,000 businesses that use DocuSign every day to accelerate sales channels, automate manual processes, reduce costs, operate greener and work more efficiently. DocuSign Marketplace is supported by the DocuSign Developer Center, which provides access to the DocuSign Software Development Kit (SDK), code samples in many different languages and technical development support to streamline application development.

“The DocuSign Marketplace is all about fostering the DocuSign development community by providing a trusted source of applications that expand and integrate DocuSign’s capabilities and to integrate with other systems,” said Tom Gonser, founder and chief strategy officer at DocuSign. “With the DocuSign Marketplace, our customers can easily find tools that complement their use of DocuSign, and ISVs have access to the largest and fastest growing community of businesses that have moved their transactions to the cloud. We know that a strong developer and ISV network can create innovative applications across all markets very rapidly, and we are working to foster this through the DocuSign Developer Center and DocuSign Marketplace.”

Today, this marketplace is in beta with applications from DocuSign partners Ariba, Box.net, Drawloop Technologies, zipLogix and other technology partners. The applications are grouped across functional and industry categories, such as CRM integration, mobile integration, document storage and real estate. All applications in the DocuSign Marketplace are certified by DocuSign for quality and value, and are ranked by customer feedback and input. Applications in the DocuSign Marketplace are also often referred by DocuSign when customers need specific platform integrations.
